Justin Smoak is in, you guessed it, the best shape of his life
Jan 26, 2012, 1:52 PM EDT
Not to steal Calcaterra’s gimic, but we can add another name to the “best shape of my life” list thanks to this tweet from MLB.com Mariners beat reporter Greg Johns:
Griffin says Justin Smoak weighs 220 now, down from 234 when came to Seattle, and is in excellent condition.

But is he in “mint condition”?

“Best shape of my career.” This is the kind of inside information that will enable me to win my fantasy league this year. I have to end the four year drought since dominating in 2007.

I would love to draft an all fantasy “in the best shape of his life” team. I wonder where they would finish

Last, but it would be fun to do anyway.

A guy his age should already be in the best shape of his life. Slacker

I mean shit, they traded Cliff Lee for him, the least he could do is hit the gym every so often

I think Smoak gets a pass here. The quote isn’t attributed to him; it’s the M’s trainer.

He’d best be, with Montero breathing down his neck.
